How a coffee shop in Dublin uses Distilo
~180 producten · ~3.300 bestellingen/mnd · webshop · 6 jr · abonnementen

I treated everyone the same. Until I saw who carries my shop.

My coffee shop in Dublin had thousands of customers, but I had no idea who the important ones were.

I gave everyone the same discount and attention, probably neglecting the very people who brought in the most.

How I got my file

In your webshop: Orders → Export → CSV. It is just a file with my sales:

customeremailorder dateamount
E. Dixonedixon@…17-07-2024€ 14,00
H. Granthgrant@…23-12-2024€ 28,00
J. Bakerjbaker@…14-03-2025€ 45,00

That is all I sent. No integration, no technical setup.

What I did at Distilo

Then I went to Distilo. Three steps:

  1. 1 I bought the Amostra for €40.
  2. 2 I uploaded the file I had just exported.
  3. 3 I typed in one sentence what I wanted to know: “which customers bring in the most money?”
What I got back

A day later I got no raw numbers, but two things: a report that explains it in plain words, and the list itself.

I gave my top customers a personal thank-you and early access to a new bag of beans.

Holding on to that revenue was easier than having to win it again.

The Amostra costs €40 and gives you one PDF with three quick analyses on your real data (lapsing customers, your best customers, and what is often bought together). Subscribe within 30 days and the €40 becomes credit.
